I love these people and this place.

This week was good. We have been working hard but finding is a little bit slow here we keep on trying and trying but the area is big and we can't pass by every day so when they aren't their for their appointment it is hard for us.

We are also working with the members to try to help them and we have been able to get some of them excited to work with us. it is tough being the only priesthood holders in the sacrament meeting but we are able to get everything done between the two of us.

Yesterday we were able to visit the only other active priesthood holder in the group. he is a 70 year old man and I think he is either a deacon or a teacher. We were able to share a message about the priesthood and his opportunity to serve. We shared a story that was told in the last conference, not this one that just happened but before, that has to do with passing the sacrament with him. The spirit was strong as we explained to him that Christ can be with him as he passes the sacrament. 

I have realized that the small and simple things we are doing here in this group can really make a big impact. It is much easier to see on this small scale here in this little town with so few members.

This weekend we are going to travel to Roque Saenz Peña again but this time for our branch conference. not very often do you get to travel for branch conference but here we do. The branch is going to pay a van driver to take us all over there together Sunday morning.

The work is moving forward little by little here in this city. we are going to keep pushing to help everyone we can. I love these people and this place.
